i love you, too. >>> for most americans, a fiscal cliff would be more of a slide. most of us will feel the impact gradually. for millions, the consequences will be immediate and severe. while the national unemployment rate dropped to 7.7%, the long-term unemployment numbers, those for whom finding wosh has been elusive for six months or more, now includes 4.8 million americans. those folks are at particular risk. that's because december 31st is also the expiration date for federal emergency unemployment insurance. the program passed into law in 2008 uses federal dollars to give extra weeks of jobless benefits to unemployed americans who have already passed the cutoff for their state benefits. if no deal is reached, 2.1 million people will see an immediate end to their federal -- to fall off the edge of that cliff without a net. >> back with me david k. johnson, sanchez and carmen wong ulrich and greg kaufman, a contributor for the nation. he has been one of the most consistent voices for poverty in america, regularly wlriting abot this on his weekly blog. this feel

cliff, but also help us avert the fiscal abyss. if president obama were to offer such a plan, republicans would act favorably. going over the cliff is unnecessary. as it has been observed in "the wall street journal," the president is boxing in the republicans. he is offering them a deal they cannot accept. first, the president has repeatedly called for a balanced solution involving both revenue and less spending. what is obvious to the most casual observer is that this plan is not a balanced. the fiscal cliff involves nearly four dollars of anticipated revenue from higher taxes for every dollar of spending cuts, yet the president wants more revenue and fewer spending cuts. if we fell off the cliff, his plan calls for another round of stimulus spending. you have got to be kidding me. what the president's plan lacks is any reform in our entitlement system. the unrestrained growth in entitlement system is driving deficits and driving the debt even higher than the percentage of our gdp. it is estimated to be as high as $128 trillion.
